Why I Chose It

The Neon Wand was my first introduction to electro play, and I think it was the ideal toy to start with!

It’s super easy to use as there is only one twist control that turns the intensity up and down and that’s it. The glass electrodes just slide in and out as well, making it very easy to switch between them.

I was also relieved that the intensity levels were very beginner-friendly. The lower levels are extremely mild and can only be felt as a light tingle, and while the higher levels do give a sharp shock, I found it wasn’t too intense.

This does depend on where it was being used though, as it felt a lot more intense in the more sensitive areas like the vulva and nipples.

The other thing I really love about the Neon Wand is that it glows purple and has this intense buzzing sound that gives it a super intimidating feel that’s just perfect for power play!

  • Single output power box

Why I Chose It

I chose the ElectraStim Flick as the best for beginners option as it comes with everything you need to start exploring electro play, and I like that you get three different attachments to try so you can figure out where you most like to be shocked! It’s also a very straightforward electro-sex kit.

Our tester, Vernon, was totally new to electro-stimulation and really “enjoyed that the electrical charge levels start at a very low amount of voltage” making it beginner-friendly. He also found that it was “extremely easy to use,” even with no prior experience.

He really liked that the pack “provides a multitude of pleasurable experiences” with each of the attachments. He also found it interested that each on had a different sensation, describing the cock ring as having a “jerking feel,” while the aura electric probe felt “as though the electricity softly raced across [his] skin.”

Although Vernon didn’t mention it in his review, another fun feature I think that I think is definitely worth mentioning is the motion responsive spanking. With the adhesive pads stuck to a partner, you can flick the power box to give them an electric spank!

Vernon was so impressed by the price considering how much you get, he said “it is undervalued” — It’s not often I hear that!

Why I Chose It

The Sirius Noir won the top spot for best electro prostate massager as it really goes the extra mile when it comes to stimulation, with it’s four contact points! George reviewed it for us, and as a seasoned electro-toy user was thoroughly impressed. He summed up the performance as “WOW!” and reported it delivers “incredible sensations and intense orgasms.”

I think the posable design of the plug is great for suiting different bodies, and George really valued this flexibility, as it “helped to ensure good contact with the conductive areas” for maximum sensation! He also thought it has a good range of settings that can “go from mild to strong, from pulsing to throbbing, to tingling and so on.”

Although George rated it as “very easy to use,” the size of the plug could be too big for beginners. He was also impressed by the reasonable price tag for the plug, but it’s worth keeping in mind that it does require a compatible power pack, which bumps up the price if you don’t already have one.

Pros

Why I Chose It

Our tester, Jesse, was new to electro-stimulation play and while it did come with a learning curve, once he figured it out, it was a big hit in terms of sensation!

He appreciated the “sleek and sexy” design and the level of control over the settings. Although he did note that there are a lot of things that influenced the intensity, including how hard you are and how much lube you use, so it can be tricky to gauge what level you should use.

I think it’s great that it comes with four different sized ball rings, meaning you can get a snug fit and Jesse reported that the “base ring felt sturdy and comfortable against [his] skin.” He had to be completely flaccid to put the cage on, but he “loved that the cage has a hole in the bottom” for fluids to escape.

From a practical standpoint, I really like that this kit comes with everything you need to get started without having to buy anything extra! I could see the cage size being an issue for some as it only comes in one size.

Why I Chose It

The ElectroPebble XPE Pack from E-Stim is a little more advanced in terms of the set up and controls, so I wanted to include for those looking for some high-tech electro play!

I was impressed by how much they’ve managed to fit into such a small device! Not only does it have dual channels that can be controlled independently, but they can also interact to create a new third sensation! While this might be a bit complex for beginners, I think it’s great if you like to experiment more!

Katie tested it out and really appreciated that this electro sex kit “gives you so many options in one product,” but they also found that “setup took a little bit of time” and it came with a learning curve. Their partner also found that the instructions could have been a little clearer in places.

In terms of how it felt to use, they loved how the “increasing sensations” allowed her to “turn off [their] mind” and be immersed in the experience and described it as being lifted “into a euphoric state.”

Different Types of Electro Sex Toys Explained

  • Power packs (kits with accessories) like the ElectraStim Flick Stimulator and E-Stim ElectroPebble are separate power supplies that can be used with different electroconductive attachments, including internal stimulators. Some attachments require a certain type of power pack so it’s always important to check compatibility.
  • Stand alone devices, like the ElectroShock Electrostim Chastity Cage, have their own built-in power pack that can only be used with that particular device. They are a little simpler to use and less expensive than power packs, so are a good for electro-play newbies.
  • Neon wands, like the KinkLab Neon Wand, are handheld devices that can be used to send electric shocks to the surface of the skin via glass electrodes. The sensations range from a light tingle to more of a sharp zap. They are only for external stimulation and are a more beginner-friendly option.

How Do Electro Sex Toys Work?

Electro sex toys can seem a little intimidating to the uninitiated. Here we will go through how they work, as well as the advantages, and any risks associated with their use.

How do they work?

How do they work?

How do they work?

E-stim passes low levels of electrical current through the muscles and nerve endings. This mimics the same signals your body uses to naturally get muscles to contract and relax.

Most e-stim toys use TENS power units, to send an electrical charge to conductive points on the toy. When these points come into contact with skin, a low level charge is passed through the nerve fibers. This is the same process used for physical e-stim therapy and pain relief.

What are the risks?

What are the risks?

What are the risks?

Electric stimulation is safe for the body and has been employed for a long time in physiotherapy to build muscle strength and help people recover from injury.

However, there are risks and these should be taken seriously. Electro sex toys are absolutely not suitable for people with heart conditions, pacemakers or pregnant women. They should also only be used on the specific area of body highlighted in the manufacturer’s instructions.

Finally, there is some evidence that such stimulation can cause desensitization of sensitive areas over time. The validity of this concern is contested, however, if you do experience any numbness or lack of feeling, stop using the e-stim toy immediately.

Are there any benefits?

Are there any benefits?

Are there any benefits?

As e-stim has traditionally been used medically as a way to strengthen muscle and recover from injury, there are arguably benefits associated with the use of electro sex toys.

For example, CalExotics has designed their Impulse Intimate range to strengthen Kegel muscles and intensify orgasms. E-stim users have also reported firmer erections, and stronger sphincters.

We don’t personally attest that these results are guaranteed or even likely, though evidence would suggest that it is possible.

The Science Behind Electrical Stimulation

Okay, let’s get into the nitty-gritty of why electro toys can feel like this.

The Basics of Electrical Stimulation

Our bodies naturally use electricity. Nerve impulses are essentially electrical charges that travel along the nerve fibers. These impulses cause muscles to contract and relax, which is how we move and feel sensations. Electro toys create their own electrical signals that stimulate these nerve endings, leading to unique sensations that can be incredibly pleasurable.

When you touch a hot stove, for example, the heat stimulates the nerve endings in your skin, which send an electrical signal to your brain. Your brain interprets this signal as the sensation of heat, and you quickly pull your hand away. Electro toys work in a similar way, but instead of heat, they use electrical currents to stimulate the nerve endings.

The unique sensations caused by electro toys can be difficult to describe, as they’re unlike anything most people have experienced before. Some people describe it as a tingling or buzzing sensation, while others compare it to the feeling of deep vibrations or even muscle contractions. The intensity and quality of these sensations can be adjusted by changing the settings on the power box, allowing you to customize your experience to your liking.

How to Use Electro Toys Safely

While the idea of using electricity for pleasure might sound a bit scary, electro toys are designed with safety in mind. They use very low voltage and current levels, much lower than anything that could cause harm. In fact, the electrical currents used by most electro toys are similar to those used by TENS units. TENS units are usually used as medical devices to relieve pain.

However, like any adult toy, electro toys should be used responsibly and as directed by the manufacturer. Here are some basic safety tips to keep in mind:

  • Never use an electro toy if you have a pacemaker, other electronic medical device, or heart conditions.
  • Always start with the lowest setting, and gradually increase the intensity.
  • Avoid using electro toys above the waist or on the chest area. The electrical current could interfere with your heart’s natural electrical signals.
  • Do not use electro toys on irritated or broken skin, as this could cause further discomfort and injury.
  • Always clean your electro toys before and after use to prevent the spread of bacteria. However, most of them are not 100% waterproof, so be sure to clean them safely. Generally, avoid using electro toys near water. Those two things don’t mix well.

Common mistakes to avoid when using electro toys include using them at too high a setting, using them for too long, or using them in unsafe areas. Remember, the goal is pleasure, not pain. If it feels uncomfortable or painful, stop immediately and adjust the settings or position of the toy.

Is Estim Safe?

Estim is perfectly safe when practiced carefully and appropriately. Here are a few big guidelines to follow when playing safely. Make sure to always refer to the manufacturer’s instructions though before using any new estim device.

At-risk Groups

Certain groups should not use an estim device under any circumstance. If you are pregnant, have a heart condition or use a pacemaker an estim toy should not be used.

Always refer to the manufacturer’s instructions and seek professional medical guidance if unsure.

Where to Use Safely

Most estim devices are unsuitable for use on or above the chest area due to the close proximity to the heart.

Never use estim for nipple play unless expressly deemed suitable by the manufacturer. Estim devices should also never be used around water, such as in the bath or shower.

Licensed Products Only

It is vitally important that you only use toys from recognized and licensed manufacturers such as ElectraStim or Mystim.

Never try to create your own DIY toys as the risk of serious injury is greatly increased when electricity is involved.

Popular types of electro sex toys

There are all kinds of estim toys that you can buy, but let’s take a look at some of the most popular and well-loved options!

  • Stimulation pads – Stick these stimulation pads to your body and feel the electric current running through them. Lose control as you feel the volts buzzing through your body, teasing and pleasing in equal parts! Mystim is a popular brand that has power packs you can attach to stimulation packs or other types of electro sex toys.
  • Wands – For direct stimulation wherever you put it, wands, sometimes called violet wands, are great and magical electric sex toys. They are brilliant and supremely exciting for external stimulation, no matter where you need it!
  • Dildos – Long, short, big, small, straight, curved…dildos can and will please! These phallic-shaped pleasers can be slid in and out however hard, deep, and fast you want! Electric dildos add that extra bit of spice!
  • Butt plugs – Fill your butt with a butt plug! Coming in all shapes and sizes, they fill your back passage up and offer a nice stretch that is a real treat! Add some vibrations, and you’ve got yourself a recipe for pleasure!
  • Prostate massagers – The male prostate is a part of the body that loves massages! When directly stimulated it will really help pump up those orgasms from deep within the body! Magic!
  • Cock rings – Wrapping around your cock and holding it nice and firm, cock rings help you get stronger and harder erections that last for longer. They can even incorporate buzzy vibrations that really takes it to the next level!
  • Nipple clamps – An often overlooked part of the body when it comes to sex toys are the nipples. But they deserve some fun too!
